The scandalous Nairobi Hospital is one of the most capitalist institutions in Kenya.
Downside is that that has not made it efficient in terms if service delivery. One particular experience is unnerving to patients, is the COVID-19 tests that cost Sh10,000 per tests.
While other hospitals have reduced their costs, The Nairobi Hospital still has theirs at Sh10k and patients are forced by some clients to take their tests from this hospital.
A client sent Kenyanbusinessfeed.com this:
Morning,
I’d like to bring to your attention and help call out NAIROBI HOSPITAL COVID TESTING SERVICE.
#1 it costs 10K wherein many places have started reducing the costs for this service.
#2 it’s been 1hour already & we still seated as though we waiting for a quorum for them to start taking our samples yet we are over 50 people as of 08.15hrs
#3 Registration alone is a process because they have only provided 3 pens
#4 No laboratory technologist has arrived to begin taking samples
This is so backward & inefficient considering the money (10K) people are parting with
